[NewMusic] raphe malik 'sexist' CD

[ted brinkley]

no, graham connah can be found here,  at 1786 san jose
avenue as always.... (and, in a multi-layered gesture
of futility, at the coliseum on autumn sundays.)
and he has plenty of thoughts on the general subject
of power issues in music scenes, sexism, homophobia,
homo-eroticism, etc. (especially in scenes where there
are mostly dudes) but...no thoughts that aren't
obvious or redundant so he'll decline to share them
here. feeling particularly loghorreic? you can call or
drop by anytime then...(it's in the book)
